Web development has become more accessible and easier for everyone, but it feels like the number of sites people are going to are only decreasing (social media sites, Google, ChatGPT, a few major publications). Especially after distrust with almost every social platform there is out there today who are all converging towards the same type of platform (short-form videos), I think it is important to create a new text-based space on the web that will allow people to find others' creations that they'd find interesting and have discourse on them.
I created Agora as a side passion project with this sentiment in mind. Especially since I have been struggling to find places I could go to learn from what others are discovering on the web (past and present) without getting distracted with addicting videos and random content.
I'd appreciate any feedback you may have. HN is a place I go to to find cool things regarding tech/dev but I built Agora to be a space for all types of interesting content. So if you have family/friends who don't have a place like HN on the web, it'd be great to send it to them as well.
